At Samsung SmartThings, we strive to offer our users the most choices when it comes to their home devices, whether it’s partnering with new products and partners – or finding new ways to control, automate and monitor your home.

So continuing this commitment, we’re excited to announce our newest partnership with ADT – and the launch of a new professionally monitored, self-installed security and life safety solution powered by the SmartThings platform – all backed by ADT professional monitoring with no long-term contract necessary.

Consisting of a Home Security Starter Kit and Home Safety Expansion Pack, the new solution from Samsung and ADT gives anyone the ability to grow their connected home ecosystem as their needs evolve. The products will be available for pre-sale on www.bestbuy.com and www.Samsung.com today, and available in Best Buy stores on October 29.

What’s Inside

With the intelligence and connectivity of Samsung and the unmatched professional monitoring of ADT, the Samsung SmartThings ADT home security system is a customizable, DIY security solution that connects with hundreds of compatible SmartThings devices to allow for one central control point.

The basis for the new DIY system is the Home Security Starter Kit, which includes the Security Hub, two Door and Window Detectors, and one Motion Detector. The system size can be expanded with additional detectors and alarms as needed, including fire, carbon monoxide and water leak detection with the addition of the Home Safety Expansion Pack.

The ADT Security Hub touchscreen panel, used to arm and disarm your home, also has a built in SmartThings Hub. This allows users to add and control their favorite smart home devices, like lights, cameras, doorbells, door locks, thermostats, sensors, voice assistants, and more within the SmartThings App as they expand their smart home. From the Android- and iOS-compatible SmartThings mobile app, consumers can easily manage these devices and sensors, set up routines, and receive alerts based on their preferences, as well as check on the security of their home.

What’s Next

Innovating with purpose is at the core of how we develop our products and choose our partners, and finding new ways to make your home smarter, easier is our goal.

As we continue to find new ways to make controlling your home effortless, we’re excited to roll out more service offerings like these – that bring together the best devices in the world, all in one app – without cluttering your home with extra products and complicated contracts.

In Q1 2018, customers will be able to add a unique video solution to their Samsung SmartThings ADT home security system. The new solution will combine custom camera hardware, cloud video storage and exclusive on-demand safety options, all seamlessly managed in the SmartThings mobile app.
